Viral single girl in the "Kinks Shirt" gives a rise to trans cisgender amour

To many, transgender people remain a oddity, not a focus for adulation. Granted we have differences but crossing the gender divide is Matt Nathanson with his new single "Kinks Shirt".

The clip features a love story involving a transgender individual and -- refreshingly -- approaches the relationship in an incredibly nonchalant way.

"The thing I love about this video is that it shows two people in love and it never makes a big deal out of the fact that one is trans," said Nathanson in a statement to The Huffington Post. "The video is touching and funny, while at the same time making a very definite statement about equality and acceptance. Let people be who they are... the only way forward in this life is with acceptance and equality for everyone, period."
